This January he will be attending two big time Junior Day's at Florida State and Colorado. Jacob also recently picked up an offer from Colorado last week, which was his first Division 1 Offer. This off-season will prove to be pivotal for Jacob recruiting wise. After picking up his first P5 offer, I'm anxious to see what schools follow suit. His production as a Junior was as exceptional as they come. Bradford was able to post 110 plus tackles and almost 10 sacks last year. I look forward to hearing this kids name a lot more in the next 6 to 8 months.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["344089"],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"u003cstrongu003eAttending: Mississippi State's Junior Day, January 28thu003c/strongu003eu003cbru003eu003cbru003eThis 6'4 290 pound prospect has had himself a great off-season up to this point, specifically January. Taccofah turned 17 years old a couple of weeks ago and has been putting in crazy work on his birthday month, starting 2023 off right. Earlier in the month, he was chosen as a top performer of the 2023 All-American Bowl National Combine. Lewis made the Top 5 list of lineman for the combine for his performance. The event features the nations top 600 underclassmen for the '24-'27 classes. Based off of clips and highlights posted from that day, Taccofah was able to show why he should be one of the more sought after interior linemen for his class. He displayed great strength and technique in one on one match-ups versus the nations best pass rushers. Lewis will also be in attendance at Southern Elite's Fall Brawl camp at Hattiesburg High School this weekend. I'm sure we will see [player_tooltip player_id='344089' first='Taccofah' last='Lewis']'s stock continue to rise in the coming months, stay tuned.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["273255"],"_player_evaluations_2_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"u003cstrongu003eAttended: Tennessee's Junior Day, January 14thu003c/strongu003eu003cbru003eu003cbru003e[player_tooltip player_id='273255' first='JJ' last='Harrell'] is one of the more known wide receiver prospects in the Magnolia state, and his recruitment reflects just that. In the short time that passed within January, JJ has gained four more official offers from Auburn, Louisville, Tulsa, and Jackson State. The University of Tennessee offered him just last month in December, and I'm sure they are trying to impress early on. Last weekend the Vols recruiting staff laid the red carpet out for JJ and several others on their Junior Day. He seemed to be impressed, but that question is yet to be fully answered. LSU was one of many other schools looking to get involved in the recruitment of this 4-Star prospect, but ultimately as the days go on the line and list grows. As we creep into 7v7 season. I'm excited to see when and where [player_tooltip player_id='273255' first='JJ' last='Harrell'] will be turning heads this off-season.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["349437"],"_player_evaluations_3_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"u003cstrongu003eAttending: Mississippi State's Junior Day, January 21stu003c/strongu003eu003cbru003eu003cbru003eMr. Williams is a prospect on the rise out of Amory, Mississippi that I'm sure you will hear a lot about this coming year. Kobe is a prospect with a great frame and with an even better work ethic to match. This off-season Kobe has taken perfecting his craft personally. He has shown the skillset, initiative, and dedication that most guys have to hone in on to make it to the collegiate level. Recently Kobe was in invited to and participated in the Dream All American Bowl. Kobe's previous season with the Amory Panthers helped turn heads and get things going in regards to his recruitment. He has a couple other invites, in the form of opportunities, to showcase his talent and skill set this off-season. Speed-Power-Exposure and VTO Sports reached out with the opportunities mentioned. I speak on these opportunities because I believe they will plant a seed in order for Kobe's recruitment to grow even more. Missouri has offered Williams, but I'm sure that the offer list will grow over this off-season.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_player":["430698"],"_player_evaluations_4_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"u003cstrongu003eAttending: Mississippi State's Junior Day, January 28thu003c/strongu003ernrnKaleb Bailey is an absolute unit of a prospect out of the 2024 class. The 6'5 330 pound Junior comes by way of Adams County Christian, and he is a man amongst boys in the trenches. His strong punch and violent hands are a thing of beauty to watch as an offensive line guy. His skill-set and feet are not to shabby either, especially for his size. Kaleb was able to catch the eye of a few programs in area, as he took to college campuses for a few game invites this past fall. A few schools on different levels have pulled the trigger on Kaleb. Florida Memorial University, Arizona Christian University, John Melvin University, and Fayetteville Christian CC. There is some interest in Kaleb's talent, but I am expecting that interest to grow over the next 6 months.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":5,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-63c84c002b1b2"} /-->
